With one SG win under my belt, and finishing my last one I decided to start a new one. This SG is to help others and yourself to a fulfilling and entertaining game. Sign up if you like. We are playing on Emperor.

Map stats:
Playing as: India
World size: standard
World: Pangaea, 70%, 4 billion, Normal
Temperature: Temperate
Barbarians: Roaming
Rivals: Random
Victories enabled: Space Race, Diplomatic, or Cultural.
Ai Agression: Normal

I can not post any pictures at this time because of the paint program I have. If someone could possibly get the saves and post the screens I would appreciate it.

Pretty standard, 24 hrs to get the save and 48 to play & post the save. Please post skips or delays so that everyone stays informed....

Also, no exploits will be used (RoP rape, Palace Jump, etc.). If something is questionable, bring it up and we'll discuss!
 
I would like to play too. I've just started playing SG's, and I'm craving some more :evil: .

Start 1:

Hi,
I'd like to join,
is it C3C 1.22 or a modded variant (Rhyes of Civ)? I can only play C3C, eventually patched, but still I'll have to check as recently I had some problems with patches (it was with C3 1.29 however, C3C 1.22 works fine for now).
I'm confortable with Emperor and have several DG wins. It's my first SG.
I'll download the saves and try them, confirmation on 18/03 (if you'll have me...).
 
Start 3 is definitely out.

Start 2 is better in production terms. With the game irrigated we could set up a 6 turn settler factory.

Start 1 holds gems though.

I'd still go for #2.
 
Thanks Meteor for the screens.
Khan it is Civ 3 1.22. I currently am not downloading any mods.
Lullaby, you know we have to try something different ;). That Conquest/Domination was too easy.

Roster as of 9:47 AM CST 3/16/05

Lullaby
MeteorPunch
Khan Asparuh (?) May or may not play.
 
Lullaby even if we do get the game irrigated, it would not matter because of the lost of irrigation due to dep. Start 1 maybe better in production, and 3 has 2 incenses right there but is not good for production. Whichever one everyone feels about the start, is the one we will go with.
 
I'd vote for 1 over 2. Better terrain, BGs and lux. Only 4 mountains in city range.
Btw, is it a GH on NE? I like your pictures set. The bad thing is that it looks surrounded by a jungle...
3 is not so bad neither. I'm sure theres some wheat in these FP, and a lux. Foodfull start is fine, even with diseases risk and moderate production.
I'd vote for 1 then 3.
I'll bring my PC at work tomorrow, there's my only Inet access for now. So confirmation tomorrow.
EDIT: However, we must decide pretty early the victory condition, cultural is not the same tacticaly as diplo or space...

Game = +2 Food, look at the screenshot. It is shown there. Irrigated game on grassland will be 4 food, 5 after government change.

1 has jungle and two volcanoes close by. I'd definitely go for start 2.

yes thats a goodie hut. start 1 has jungle to the south and east. start 2 has jungle south.
 
I tried it, on the savefiles I get "Data IO operation error:LEAD"... :cry:
I'll have to give up. with problems like this i'll never join a SG.
Sorry guys. I'll lurk.
 
I'm tired of the french version. I think I'll get complete in english version so maybe no more patch problems, most mods are restricted to english version and so on...
 
lurker's comment: Data IO errors are usually related to corrupted saves, wrong game versions, or odd graphic features. Localization problems are 'file not found' errors (usually the Settler), and can be solved manually with some work. There's a tool for German versions, but I'm not aware of a French one.
 
You guys want to wait for one or two more people or start it now and let 1 or 2 people join in the middle of the game? Any volunteers for going first (I hate going first in SGs).
 
hmmm i guess i could try it, but it would be my first SG, and i am still learning (can beat monarch fairly easily, but i don't like long lasting games, so i usually stop when i have the biggest forces etc)...
also, i cannot play a lot until Tuesday or so... it's up to you =)
 
Any more room? I want to sign up.
